What is exactly going on in New Orleans?

As hurricane Ida blew through the southern region of Louisiana all the way to New York reports of her unforeseen damages were astounding. Though, one area is really trying to pull things together and get people to return to their home town. New Orleans. Though as a resident myself having to evacuate, there are many conflicting reports. While you see news outlets reporting Entergy’s success in turning the electricity on in certain areas you see statements like this.

One thing is for certain

I can understand the plight of the city wanting its residents to return, but in all honesty… You need to tell the truth.. Having someone go from comfort back to barbaric measures is not wanting the best for your citizens.
